Terminate Earthing electrode
Important
•
For EMC compliance, it is important that a local earthing electrode is used to bond the chassis of the user
unit directly to ground. This may be in the form of an earth stake, or if available, can be bonded to pre-existing
buried earth structures.
•
Prior to installation of the unit, a professional review of local lightning protection requirements must be
performed to ensure that laws and regulations are adhered to. As a result, it may be necessary to install
additional earthing electrodes for outdoor installations.
Terminate the local earth electrode to the body of the user unit on the same stud as the
protective Earth cable (Figure 18: User Unit Earth Stud Location).
